Hi guys,

 

Only recently i've noticed a small issue with my supra, for some reason when i go round some left hand turns at say 30-40mph with moderate wheel lock my interior/handbrake and door open lights flicker at the same time, if i do it at lower speeds it's fine it just seems that when the front right is under load that it does this. Anyone got any ideas on what this could be or come across it before? The handling isn't affected and i can't hear any strange noises it's just the lights flicker like the Supra is haunted by a poltergeist :D

As Dunk says, it's the switch on the door. Pull your door closed harder when you get in, might be as simple as that. If it continues then you may need to adjust the striker in the door, from memory it's a couple of star headed bolts that you'll need to loosen then adjust the position of the striker and tighten up again.

I had this happen on my old N/A when a certain somone really slammed the passenger door shut hard. After that everytime I turned right all the door open lights IE dash,interior lights would flick on and off very quickly until the turn was complete.

I fixed the problem by ever so slightly moving the sensor
